Anyone good with photoshop?

[Stiff_Cookie]

I recently bought a car and the car is de-badged and pretty much all black (tinted windows, black paint, blacked out rear lights etc) I love the way the car looks but it has a few stone chips in it. I want to get the car repainted and I want something to break up all the black. I was thinking of putting some ghost flames on the front of the car and found a style a really like. However, I really want to see the style on my car.

Is anyone willing to take this image: http://photos-d.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sctm/v45/37/18/57100174/n57100174_30351659_2358.jpg

make the car black and add this style and color of flames to the front.

That's going to be very hard even for a photoshop pro. The lighting and angles in those two pics are vastly different, I think they'd have to be redrawn freehand onto the car from scratch. Plus you haven't specified what kind of scale you want the flames to appear.

Nice looking car though

That's a great looking car - don't ruin it with the flames!

Please don't put flames on it. just enjoy the V8 goodness.

lol it would appear not. In any case don't actually do it. Looks like something Alvin Nathaniel Joiner would hand you back as you break in to tears thinking what a waste of a terrible car.

Thanks! From what every one else says it looks great but my school seems to be filtering file sharing sites like imageshack

Begbie, its a V6
For those who are saying I shouldnt do it, what do you recommend for breaking up the black. Right now my car looks like this:

I wish I could see it but imageshack is blocked. Stupid filters.

In fairness it a good piece of PS. On the other hand you car doesnt need to broken up, apart from maybe spray the airvent front spoiler/diffuser black, its basically very tasteful. Any dodgy spray job will ruin it. Also asking that question will be better answered in the Motors forum.

First I laughed, then I thought about a car that drives around Cheltenham with 'Lesbo Lover' painted on it! More people should should just say it as it is

Flames? Poor car.

If you want to break up the black, remove the tints and get the wheels sprayed silver.
